Hopefully Someone Can Help Me!
When one of our patients passes away, and their spouse or family member wants to discard the prosthesis in a useful way, we have helped these people out in the past by forwarding the prosthesis onto a prosthetic leg bank.
When I recently tried to contact one of these organizations called The Leg Bank, I was informed by the operator that their 800 # was no longer in order. I also know the name of another organization called Brothers to Brothers but I don't have their number.
Can someone help me out with names and numbers of these organizations, or others of similar makeup!
Thanks!
